<p>Description</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>delete-application-ref</code> subcommand removes a reference from a
cluster or an unclustered server instance to an application. This
effectively results in the application element being undeployed and no
longer available on the targeted instance or cluster.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The target instance or instances making up the cluster need not be
running or available for this subcommand to succeed. If one or more
instances are not available, they will no longer load the application
the next time they start.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Removal of the reference does not result in removal of the application
from the domain. The bits are removed only by the <code>undeploy</code> subcommand.</p>

<p>This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.</p>

<p>The name of the application or module, which can be a Java EE
application module, Web module, EJB module, connector module,
application client module, or lifecycle module.<br>
The name can include an optional version identifier, which follows the
name and is separated from the name by a colon (<code>:</code>). The version
identifier must begin with a letter or number. It can contain
alphanumeric characters plus underscore (<code>_</code>), dash (<code>-</code>), and period
(<code>.</code>) characters. To delete references to multiple versions, you can
use an asterisk (<code>*</code>) as a wildcard character. For more information
about module and application versions, see "<a href="../application-deployment-guide/overview.html#GSDPG00324">Module
